“Kendall was great - animals and house were well cared for. She sent pictures and communicated throughout her stay. We’ve already booked her again for a longer stay when we’re next out of town!”
“Jinger watched our sweet Macy 2 days in a row as we were in & out, super busy with wedding festivities. Not once did I have to stop & think of or worry about Macys’s care because Jinjer kept me updated with fun play videos & photos. Macy loved her & got so excited to see her on day 2. I highly recommend Jinjer as she was professional, sweet & really cared about us & our pup. Thank you Jinjer! ❤️”
“I cannot say enough good things about Vivien. I have two very large dogs a pitbull and a German Shepherd and they are big babies and she took great care of them and unfortunately I don’t have a yard so she had to walk them every day three times a day and she did a great job. They loved her. She kept me up-to-date with texts, me sent me pictures. She will definitely be called upon again.”

“Kailey watched 2 of our dogs at home for a long weekend. She is responsive, respectful, and kind. Kailey asked plenty of questions to make sure she could meet our expectations. House was kept tidy and Kailey was thoughtful to put the linens in the laundry room and clean the poop in the yard. I came home later than expected and Kailey offered to come back for a potty break. Girls seemed calm and content when I got home. Grateful for Kailey!”
About: I’ve been raising and caring for Cane Corsos since I was 10 years old, giving me extensive experience with large, powerful breeds. While I have a special place in my heart for Cane Corsos, I love dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities and have experience caring for many different breeds. I’ve also owned three cats throughout my life and currently have one of my own, so I’m equally comfortable caring for feline companions. Growing up around animals has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding each pet’s individual needs. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, exercise, playtime, and providing plenty of love and attention. Whether your pet is an energetic puppy, a gentle giant, or a laid-back cat, I’ll treat them with the same care, patience, and affection I give my own animals. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m currently a full time chef but I am available Sundays and Mondays all day and night. I don’t mind overnight stays. Rain or shine. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. Having raised Cane Corsos since I was 10 and owned cats throughout my life, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your animals. I always make sure pets have a clean, safe, and comfortable environment with fresh water, regular meals, exercise, and plenty of attention. I’m mindful of securing doors and gates, keeping potentially harmful items out of reach, and following each pet’s specific care instructions. I understand that every animal has a unique personality. Some dogs need plenty of exercise and playtime, while others prefer a relaxed environment. Similarly, some cats love attention, while others need their personal space. I always adapt my approach to make sure each pet feels comfortable and secure. I’ll respect your home, maintain your pet’s normal routine, and provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets with the same love, patience, and care I give my own.
“Maddie was awesome! She took great care of both of my dogs and kept me updated the entire time. She made me so comfortable while I was away and I knew my dogs were having such a great time! I would definitely book with Maddie again and I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a trustworthy dog sitter. She goes above and beyond! ?”
“Samantha was great. She took wonderful care of my babies, stayed in touch daily and sent pics. I appreciate being able to be away knowing they were in great hands.”
“Marianne did a fabulous job with our babies! It was our first time with a sitter, and she had great communication with us. She sent many photos and updates which made us feel comfortable about leaving them behind. Our dog and cat loved her!”
About: I've spent years taking care of family and friends' animals - primarily cats and dogs. I have my own high-energy herding pup and am familiar with the ins and outs of an animal. I've had experience with sensitivity and reactivity as well. I'm excited to love on and spend time with your pets! I am currently working part-time so I have flexiblity and time to hang with your pets. Let me know what their schedule looks like, and we can see if it is a good fit! I am very aware of my surroundings and cognizant of animal body language (from working with my own pup). I try to meet the energy of the animal - cat want alone time, or only to play a little bit? Fine by me! High-energy dog needs multiple walks during the day? Also works for me.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was very young. All sizes, shapes and colors! I’ve always helped others out caring for their dogs, treating them as if they were my own. At this point my life, I no longer have my own fur babies and welcome the opportunity to love on yours! I work from home so my schedule is extremely flexible, I can come and go as I please. Basically, if I have Internet, I’m good to go!! I understand our unusual circumstances in Arizona very well. I’m a fanatic about leaving dogs outside alone, I just don’t do it, ever. If it matters, I don’t mind the dog sleeping on the bed!
About: I offer 1 consistent presence for both pets and the people who depend on them. I pay attention to the details, simply a scheduled service. I can be flexible because pet care and senior companionship are my full time focus. I can allow each client the time needed for them. I have a large condo with plenty of room to run around. I can take your pets on walks easily through my neighborhood with ease.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fountain Hills
Michelle was amazing! Her attention to detail was impressive - she covers everything in advance and asks great questions. Her communication was perfect and she sent updates and pics often which kept me assured that my pup was doing well and happy. Bodie was very happy with Michelle as was evident by his smile on her pics. She played with him and kept him well entertained - which is important for a puppy. She followed all of my notes to a tee and my house was in perfect condition when I got home too. Will definitely use Michelle again. Great experience!
Jinjer is the absolute Best at loving on & taking care of our fur baby Bentley! She took great care of our home & even had to put up with some office construction during her stay, what a trooper! Thank you for all your love, efforts & belly rubs, our baby loves you & we do too! Best wishes!
Andrew and Sophia are absolutely the best! They love animals and made sure our pups were not just well taken care of but loved while we were out of town. They have experience caring for senior dogs which helped us feel at ease leaving our 14-year-old lab. They took cute pictures and sent updates almost every day which was great. They also took wonderful care of the house including changing the sheets on the guest bed before they left. They go above and beyond. I highly recommend them and planning to rebook with them again in a few weeks.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Fountain Hills walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Fountain Hills maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Fountain Hills choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
